The actors didn't quit, the series ended. With only eight episodes made for Law and Order CI, season 10, the show's final season ended with the series finale that aired on June 26, 2011. The reason given for the decision to end the series was dropping ratings.
Goren and Eames were originally replaced by Det. Zack Nichols for season 8 and 9 to boost ratings. But Goren and Eames were brought back for season 10 in an effort to win back their fan base.
Kathryn Erbe played Detective Alexandra Eames on Law & Order: Criminal Intent.
No, Detectives Eames and Goren maintained a relationship as professional colleagues throughout the run of Law and Order: Criminal Intent.
Nothing, he quit.
Yes, all actors must by law be paid whenever they work, unless they are donating their time to charitable causes (TV episodes do not qualify as charitable causes).
Actors Vincent D'Nofrio and Katherine Erbe return as Detectives Goren and Eames for the final season (season 10) of Law and Order CI. I'm sure that producers made the change to help the series ratings. I, for one, liked all of the Criminal Intent teams; each had their own appeal.

After the murder of Captain Ross, their was an interim Lt. He and the chief of detectives asked Eames to take the Captains exam and put her in charge of the Major Case Squad. They made her first task to fire Goren. She did so then called the brass and said they had better find some else, put her shield and gun on the desk, leading you to believe she quit. It was done very very badly.
Kathryn Erbe played Detective Alexandra Eames on Law and Order: Criminal Intent, opposite actor Vincent D'Onofrio as Detective Robert Goren. Previously she had appeared in HBO's 'Oz' series and NBC's 'Homicide: Life on the Street' miniseries.
Vincent D'Onofrio has never received an Emmy for his role in Law and Order: Criminal Intent. He was nominated for his guest role in Homicide Life on the Streets, the episode titled "The Subway" but missed out there as well.
